Life of a 80 Year Old Man Running A Japanese Sento (Bath House) For Over 62 Years!

Life of a 80 Year Old Man Running A Japanese Sento (Bath House) For Over 62 Years!

It's documentaries like this that gives you a better appreciation for the finer things in life.

This mini documentary I found is quite interesting, as it gives a glimpse of a day in the life of a Japanese Sento (public bath house) owner who has been running the small family business for over 62 years!

And the owner is a 80 year old man still going strong!

Here's the documentary I found (it's only 15 mins long):

It's really quite amazing how this Sento is an integral part of the community, where other elderly folks come and socialize and come together as a community.

I also found, the story of the 80 year old owner's wife at the end very touching.

What's your thoughts of this after watching the video?

Have a great weekend ahead!
